w6kd 9 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Hi; When I try to plan a flight using the 4000' step climb option, it computes the plan using 2000' steps instead, which is a no-no in non-MNPS airspace. "No" step works as it should with no step climb. Using V1.05 Regards Bob Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlightSimSoft.com 283 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Do you have a sample route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcBrodbeck 0 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Hi Bob, It does look like a bug, e.g. ignoring the 4k step climb option. This is my ICAO route w/ 4.000ft steps selected: (FPL-GNL-IN -A332/H-SDGHIJPRWY/SD -KORD0645 -N0472F370 BACEN1 RBS DCT TTH DCT BWG DCT RMG DCT OTK DCT LAL DCT RSW/N0475F390 DCT TADPO UG448 GCM UL465 TBG UM674 KETOM/N0467F410 UM674 ATOGO ATOGO1 -SPIM0716 SPSO -NAV/RNP4 DOF/130907 REG/A330TST EET/KZID0020 KZME0041 KZTL0055 KZJX0126 KZMA0155 MUFH0228 MKJK0300 MPZL0339 SKED0449 SEGU0525 SPIM0601 RVR/75 RMK/ADSB AGCS TCAS -E/0843) However, 2k steps are allowed in RVSM airspace, and since around NOV 2011 pretty much the whole world is RVSM.

FlightSimSoft.com 283 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 There is indeed a problem when selecting 4000ft step climbs in certain scenarios. Will be fixed in next release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the RVSM link...I had no idea it was that pervasive around the world now. I still view the world as it was when I had my last flight in the G-5 (circa 2002). Christian--thanks for fixing it. Cheers Bob Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AALScott 1 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I to am having a problem. I have 2000ft step set and this is what i get N0469F310 DARTZ4 TNV/N0465F330 DCT VUH DCT PEGLG/M073F190 L208 ODKOT/N0467F330 L208 AGPOD UL208 MID UB753 TNT UA502 LIBIS/N0464F340 UA502 MGA UG439 LIB UG436 TIGIR/N0461F350 UG436 ATOGO/N0457F370 UG436 LIM UL302 TOY UW208 EMBAL BAYOS1 Notice how it descends to FL190 at peglg.....why? there is also a 1000 ft step climb in the routing not 2000. Do i need to do something in the settings. in the AC I have OPT for altitude and M78 for speed with 2000 for a Step climb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try calculate the route using upper airways only in the Advanced Route Editor. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlightSimSoft.com 283 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Please make sure you have checked the Cruise Altitude/FL restrictions box in the advanced route finder and entered a valid cruise level (e.g. FL350) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
